@divyavijayakumar
I’m a finance operations leader specializing in tax compliance, pension administration, and automated reporting to drive accurate, faster delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a finance operations professional with 11+ years of experience spanning tax compliance, pension administration, and financial reporting. I’m known for reliability and adaptability, and I focus on aligning operational performance with critical organizational goals.
In my current Assistant Manager role at Ernst & Young, I lead and motivate cross-functional teams to ensure accurate regulatory filings across multiple jurisdictions. I manage preparation, review, and reconciliation of complex financial and tax compliance reports, and I streamline 5+ core reporting processes—reducing month-end delivery timelines by 15%. I’ve also been entrusted with peer review responsibilities for tax filings and received multiple GDS User Awards and direct client recognition.
Previously at Mercer Consulting and Automatic Data Processing, I managed service delivery, handled complex benefit and compensation processes, and improved audit readiness through proactive risk identification. I’ve automated 3 key reconciliation tasks using RPA (saving ~40 hours per month) and have consistently supported onboarding through training and floor support.
